UPMC Hamot Infusion Center - 215 Holland Street, Erie, PA
Patients seeking safe, comfortable, convenient alternative to inpatient care for quality infusion therapy can visit the UPMC Hamot Infusion Center (HIC). Since the UPMC Hamot Infusion Center is hospital-based, patients with Medicare and other insurances are covered for therapies that would otherwise not be reimbursed in a home care setting. For patients who require infusion therapy during their hospitalization, the UPMC Hamot Infusion Center can decrease the length of stay providing those services on an outpatient basis. The UPMC Hamot Infusion Center utilizes high technology infusion pumps and medication administration systems to enhance patient safety.
The UPMC Hamot Infusion Center is staffed with Registered Nurses specifically trained in infusion therapy. Patients utilizing the HIC can take advantage of free parking for easy access, along with the comforts of recliner chairs, complimentary beverages, snacks and cable television.
